Everything You Need to Know About the French Blonde
According to the ever-watchful corners of the internet, Taylor Swift—a long-time Friend of the Program—continues to be the unofficial ambassador for the French Blonde, which remains her rumored gold-standard cocktail during her downtime with Travis Kelce. This sophisticated sipper centers on a base of botanical gin, though a clean vodka is a perfectly acceptable variation, and pairs the spirit with Lillet Blanc to share a bit of DNA with the classic Corpse Reviver. What truly gives the drink its balance is the addition of elderflower liqueur and fresh grapefruit juice for a tart-yet-sweet finish, making it the perfect choice whether you are heading out for a high-profile date night or just settling in for a relaxing, music-filled evening at home.
